Sue Jackson | My Experience with Carnivore Diet - First 3 Weeks #chronicillness #MECFS #diet #carnivore @SueJacksonDE | Uploaded January 2024 | Updated October 2024, 3 hours ago.
Please note that I am NOT a medical professional and am not offering medical advice or recommending this diet for others. I am sharing my own experiences and what I've learned.
In this video, I describe my experiences so far with the carnivore diet, almost a month in, as someone with ME/CFS and chronic yeast overgrowth (which is common in ME/CFS and many other immune disorders, too). I mentioned in the video that I was feeling a bit rundown when I recorded and edited this; as of 1/31, I am feeling good again, with good energy. There are lots of links below for more information:

A good place to start on improving diet and helping yeast overgrowth is a Paleo diet. This post explains what it is, the modified Paleo diet we were eating, and how it helped us (note that if I'd stuck to strict Paleo, without the modifications, I might not have gotten as bad as I did!):
